UK Gambling Commission targets larger illegal operators in Great Britain
The UK Gambling Commission will focus its efforts on preventing unauthorised operators from establishing a significant presence in Great Britain, executive director Sue Young said at an event in Gibraltar. The government has allocated an additional £26 million over three years for the work, including £7 million available this year. Young said the commission targets major operators through payment disruption, site access restrictions and cooperation with partners.
Licensed operators and service providers face expanded cooperation with the regulator to disrupt illegal gambling activity.
